Vitest, dotenv-expand failed to expand env vars

Question

Inside my index.test.ts file, I have the following code:

import { it,describe, expect } from "vitest";
import {readEvents,readCommands} from "../index";

describe("command and event loaders",() => {
    it("event loader should work proper",() => {
        let el = readEvents;
        expect(el).not.toThrowError;
    })
    it("command loader should work properly",() => {
        let el = readCommands;
        expect(el).not.toThrowError;
    })
})

When I run; vitest --run --reporter verbose, I get that following error:

Error: dotenv-expand failed to expand env vars. Maybe you need to escape $ ?

Answer 1

Check in your.env if some value contains '$', if so then you must escape it
